Topic: [77365] Time difference

[-77365] Conqueror9 [None] :: Sept. 21, 2012, 11:23 p.m.
I just find out

there is a hugh time different between
1. i attack a rbc, it takes me 36 mins to hit
2 . I attack a output to try to cap it, it takes 3 hr 40 mins...

how does this occurs ??

i have no idea the difference of timing
they are attacking army, no major difference ??

does the time are difference (even they a same distance away from your castle) between
1. a robber baron castle
2. a outpost
3. a player city

why impose that difference in timing... ???

ot

it is a bug ?? after sending army to cap a outpost, i check with another rbc about timing, it is 7 to 8 times difference in timing

outpost takes long because a castellan is traveling and players take long so they can prepared

You can only have one outpost at the same time with a level 1 estate

The castellan takes a long time to travel, therefore the wait time is a lot longer. This gives the player a while to prepare (because it's unfair if they sign off for half an hour and lose their outpost) and should happen anyway because winning an outpost is a LOT more valuable than winning an attack.

There is no difference in timing between an RBC, person's castle or outpost. Trying attacking an outpost and then an RBC and then a player's castle (all roughly the same distance away) and you should get the same/similar times.

BTW, if you're capturing someone else's outpost, some buildings will turn to rubble and others will set on fire.
